@HamishinWA Yeah - Agree. Walpole is isolated enough to have a micro grid. Would help reliability. Some regulatory changes need to happen first. But that’s in the pipeline.
Walpole power out again; and it’s a nice (non-stormy) Valentine’s Day. Time for Western Power to invest in solutions. Shops powered by generators waiting for comms to go down in 2 hrs. Unacceptable
Great privilege to Open the 19th Annual Cherry Harmony Festival. Well done Manjimup. Big effort by Shire, volunteers and community groups. #shireofmanjimup#wanationals
“We will create a $35m Community Energy Fund to encourage regional households and community groups install behind the meter batteries” @MiaDaviesMLA announces at #AlbanyNats20 conference.
@MiaDaviesMLA promises @TheNationalsWA will create a $250m fund for 11 regional cities and towns to support their aspirations to grow into modern, sustainable, dynamic places to live and work.
New Tesla Battery behind the meter at Margaret River; innovative solutions for grid stress issues. Credit where credit is due to W/Power and WA Govt. Here with Shire leadership team. #shireofmargaretriver#nationalswa#westernpower
Gag order on emergency services volunteers. Really surprised this hasn’t got more public attention. Covid is the big game in town; but we can’t let this stuff slip under the carpet. #wapol#nationalswa#dfes#volunteersvote
Great to see Jacobs ladder open again; with social distancing. I encourage all who use public facilities to download the COVID App. #cityofperth#wapol#nationalswa
$14.4m Tourism Grants welcomed, but eligibility rules out many who have been hardest hit by COVID19 restrictions. C’mon Minister they are just asking to be in the hunt. #wanationals#wapol@waSouthWest

103rd Warren districts Ag Show - once again showcasing the Southern Forests Community. Here with Joe Bendotti and Roz Omodei pumping up local Bendotti chips. A 140kg pumpkin is nothing to be sneezed at either. #southernforests#manjimupwa
